Like many rappers moving up the money ladder, YK Osiris added a Lamborghini, Rolls-Royce and multiple Cadillacs to his collection to match his successful music career. But on Wednesday night (December 30), the Def Jam Recordings artist took to his Instagram Stories to reveal he’d sold his expensive cars and bought a Hyundai in order to bring him back down to Earth.
“This what I’m riding in now,” Osiris said in a video. “This my new car. Fuck a foreign. I sold my Lamborghini, I sold my Rolls-Royce, I sold my Cadillacs, yessirski. I ain’t gon’ lie, this thing humble yourself.”
He continued, “I ain’t gotta floss for you n-ggas man. Y’all gon’ think what y’all wanna think. If I do got it, don’t got it, y’all gon’ think what y’all wanna think. I love this Hyundai. Shit, I ain’t riding a fucking Lamborghini, I ain’t gotta floss for you n-ggas. That’s what’s wrong with you n-ggas, y’all feel like you gotta floss for the Instagram. Man, fuck them man, y’all don’t need to floss for no dumb ass Instagram.”
The decision to purchase a Hyundai was driven by YK Osiris wanting to give himself a reality check and get his priorities straight.
“I had to sit back,” he admitted. “I had to realize and look at the world like, ‘Osiris, you forgot who the fuck you are, you forgot where the fuck you came from. Fuck a Lambo n-gga, fuck a Rolls-Royce. Remember where you came from n-gga. Don’t get lost in the sauce. Get this muthafuckin’ music. Drop this music and get this fucking money man, and don’t worry about that dumb shit.'”
Osiris added, “Just remember… the same way you got it up, the same way you’ll go down. Swear to God, on my life.”

The Jacksonville, Florida native released his debut album The Golden Child in October 2019, which debuted at No. 90 on the Billboard 200 chart with roughly 10,000 total album-equivalent units sold in its first week. In November, YK Osiris revealed he refuses to do a feature for anything under $100,000.
“Aye stop asking me for verses,” he said in a clip. “I charge $100,000. If you don’t got $100,000, I’m not doing it. Period.”
Ill to see some of the younger cats try to figure out early on in life
We’ll see. It’s a smart move if it’s genuine.
This LAME is BROKE! No ‘hits’, Got DROPPED by the label, NO ‘Buzz’, couldn’t make payments on thoose cars, he’s BROKE! He needs CASH, Got NO Shows, NO offers, NO deals! He’s OVER OVER OVER. PERIOD. (Plus think KOREAN Hyundai isn’t ‘foreign’ …. GTFOH)
Says the broke commentator lol
Damn you’re a pocket watching hater …. lmaoooo never seen no shit like this before ctfu
should have at least got a tahoe or a yukon.
while i doubt he had the scratch to afford a garage full of vehicles that even max NBA players would struggle to maintain I think bro is genuine about not needing to flex to show he is a man of means who can get what he wants done when he wants to do it – good lesson for young folks because once you get that shiny thing it doesn’t shine as much. even that rolex is just more junk in a drawer after a while
I’ll be happy with the fame,pussy n drugs
The things is that, ok once you get in the game yeah you as an artist(s) or even producers its good to accumulate those things but always remember that as soon as you pull off the lot, really no matter what make an model the car is. As soon as you pull off the lot that vehicle starts to depreciate in value so if you was to ever try to sell it you would never get what the car is worth or what you paid for it. That’s why its best to get things that grow in value. Why you think artists like from Snoop to DMX even Curren$y get old schools. Curren$y came up fixing/restoring vehicles. I even heard him say when he be hearing other rappers talkin bout they old school cars, he said he would test em just to see if they were really into cars like that or just bought the cars already done which is nothing wrong with that but he said he gonna talk about the engine an everything. An he said that most wasn’t into cars like that an sum really were. From the engine down to struts shocks etc etc. A restored vehicle well appreciate in value an will be worth just as much as a new whip or more.
